Much like the Pebble, the Kreyos has a 1.2-inch 144x168-pixel black and white nontouch display, is water-resistant to over 5 meters, and has a variety of watch faces. But its WatchBand accessory, available in a variety of colors, can snap off.

Tucked into a pink lanyard. The Kreyos can be used offline with its included widget apps, and doesn't require a smartphone for syncing: you could use a Mac or Windows PC instead.
